No Popup skill message when sneaking

I think that the skill message is great, but it really takes away the element of suprise.

Say a thief is sneaking up on someone. The thief uses blackjack and the enemy sees the skill message and turns around, Completely ruining the element of surprise.

Even with a skill like safefall, used to jump off walls into a enemy town, is some what useless in a stealth environment. You could be completely unseen on your approach, but the whole city will know of your arrival when you use your safefall.

Basicly, if your sneaking no skill message, If your not sneaking, everyone sees that you just uses blackjack. This would work with Pressing shift and it would work with the rogues skill.

I don't know if this is possible to code,(seems like it would be too me), But I think this would really improve the stealth gameplay in Herocraft.

Also, when it says ''______ has slain ______ with a _______.'', this takes away the idea of having ninjas. Ninjas should be people whom kill others without the world noticing, even the victim. I think it should say something like:

''MajorasMask was slain by ???????''

I agree in some cases, I think we should allow for some skills to ONLY be seen in use by the user and not others.

''MajorasMask was slain by ???????''

I like this idea aswell, but I don't know how the decision would be made to see if it is ?????s or The persons name. Maybe if the killer is sneaking? or if they take no damage from their target?

+1 for stealth skills not being announced to the world.
-1 for anonymous kills.
